As the Biden presidency teeters in the wake of last week’s disastrous debate performance that left no doubt about his sharp mental decline, discussion of Vice President Kamala Harris’s prospects for becoming the party’s new 2024 standard-bearer tend to focus on her (lack of) electability and Democrats’ reluctance to pass over a black woman who holds the title that makes her a natural successor.
Little attention has been paid to what might be Kamala’s greatest asset: her name on the $91.2 million Biden-Harris campaign account. Per federal election rules, in the event Biden drops out, that account can’t simply be handed over to whomever the party eventually nominates for president — unless it’s Harris.
According to NBC News, the question of what would happen to the Biden-Harris war chest surfaced on a tense Sunday conference call hosted by the Biden campaign with an audience that included some 40 top Biden donors. While denying Biden might drop out, campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez’s answer was that most of the money would fall into Harris’s control.
I wonder what happens to that money if the both drop out.
Well, Dems, you’ve effed up again.
No amount of money will buy kamala the president’s position
